One of the biggest financial mistakes people make is focusing on the purchase price instead of the lifetime cost of ownership for things like a horse.
The $30,000 purchase is only the entry fee, after that comes boarding, feed, veterinary care, insurance, farrier visits, equipment, transport, and unexpected medical expense over the horse’s lifetime, it’s entirely possible to spend several times the original purchase price just keeping it healthy and cared for. If your goal is to build wealth, it’s worth asking whether the same $30,000, plus the thousands spent each year on upkeep, could work harder elsewhere, keep it simple like an the good old S&P500.
If you want to lock in and you have to announce first, then you're not ready.
Lockins are brutal, punchy, invasive and done in stealth.
You make the decision in a snap, cut everyone out, disappear and come back 10X better.
The correct way to lock in is to STFU & do it. 🤫
This is how to fall in love with what is good for you. If you struggle with having genuine passion for what is good for you because you naturally enjoy evil things that corrupt your soul and body, this is how to change.
Simply meditate on that which is good. Bind it on your forehead and your arms. Think about it. Stay your mind on it. Set your mind on it.
As you do, the value and beauty of that thing will become more apparent to you. Your appetites will change. And you will fall in love with it.
Think on that which is good. Grace to all God’s people.
